Important: thunderbird security update (Amazon Linux 2)

Published Feb 17, 2023 · Updated Jan 30, 2025

Ecosystem: Amazon Linux

Summary

Package updates are available for Amazon Linux 2 that fix the following vulnerabilities: CVE-2023-23605: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: Mozilla developers and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Firefox 108 and Firefox ESR 102.6. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. CVE-2023-23603: Regular expressions used to filter out forbidden properties and values from style directives in calls to console.log weren't accounting for external URLs. Data could then be potentially exfiltrated from the browser. CVE-2023-23602: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: A mishandled security check when creating a WebSocket in a WebWorker caused the Content Security Policy connect-src header to be ignored. This could lead to connections to restricted origins from inside WebWorkers. CVE-2023-23601: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: Navigations were being allowed when dragging a URL from a cross-origin iframe into the same tab which could lead to website spoofing attacks CVE-2023-23599: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: When copying a network request from the developer tools panel as a curl command the output was not being properly sanitized and could allow arbitrary commands to be hidden within. CVE-2023-23598: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: Due to the Firefox GTK wrapper code's use of text/plain for drag data and GTK treating all text/plain MIMEs containing file URLs as being dragged a website could arbitrarily read a file via a call to DataTransfer.setData. CVE-2023-0430: Certificate OCSP revocation status was not checked when verifying S/Mime signatures. Mail signed with a revoked certificate would be displayed as having a valid signature. Thunderbird versions from 68 to 102.7.0 were affected by this bug. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 102.7.1. CVE-2022-46882: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: A use-after-free in WebGL extensions could have led to a potentially exploitable crash. CVE-2022-46881: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: An optimization in WebGL was incorrect in some cases, and could have led to memory corruption and a potentially exploitable crash. CVE-2022-46880: A missing check related to tex units could have led to a use-after-free and potentially exploitable crash.<br />*Note*: This advisory was added on December 13th, 2022 after we better understood the impact of the issue. The fix was included in the original release of Firefox 105. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 102.6, Firefox < 105, and Thunderbird < 102.6. CVE-2022-46878: Mozilla developers Randell Jesup, Valentin Gosu, Olli Pettay, and the Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported memory safety bugs present in Thunderbird 102.5. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 108, Firefox ESR < 102.6, and Thunderbird < 102.6. CVE-2022-46877: By confusing the browser, the fullscreen notification could have been delayed or suppressed, resulting in potential user confusion or spoofing attacks. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 108. CVE-2022-46874: A file with a long filename could have had its filename truncated to remove the valid extension, leaving a malicious extension in its place. This could potentially led to user confusion and the execution of malicious code.<br/>*Note*: This issue was originally included in the advisories for Thunderbird 102.6, but a patch (specific to Thunderbird) was omitted, resulting in it actually being fixed in Thunderbird 102.6.1. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 108, Thunderbird < 102.6.1, Thunderbird < 102.6, and Firefox ESR < 102.6. CVE-2022-46872: The Mozilla Foundation Security Advisory describes this flaw as: An attacker who compromised a content process could have partially escaped the sandbox to read arbitrary files via clipboard-related IPC messages. *This bug only affects Firefox for Linux. Other operating systems are unaffected.* CVE-2022-46871: RESERVED NOTE: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2022-51/#CVE-2022-46871 CVE-2022-45414: If a Thunderbird user quoted from an HTML email, for example by replying to the email, and the email contained either a VIDEO tag with the POSTER attribute or an OBJECT tag with a DATA attribute, a network request to the referenced remote URL was performed, regardless of a configuration to block remote content. An image loaded from the POSTER attribute was shown in the composer window. These issues could have given an attacker additional capabilities when targetting releases that did not yet have a fix for CVE-2022-3033 which was reported around three months ago. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 102.5.1. CVE-2022-40961: A stack based buffer overflow vulnerability was identified in Mozilla Firefox and Firefox ESR. This vulnerability occurs when the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function). An attacker could cause of denial-of-service style crash by exploiting this vulnerability. To exploit this vulnerability, a remote, unauthenticated attacker would need to convince a user to visit a specially crafted website or open a malicious document. CVE-2022-34484: The Mozilla Fuzzing Team reported potential vulnerabilities present in Thunderbird 91.10. Some of these bugs showed evidence of memory corruption and we presume that with enough effort some of these could have been exploited to run arbitrary code. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 102, Firefox ESR < 91.11, Thunderbird < 102, and Thunderbird < 91.11. CVE-2022-34481: A flaw was found in Mozilla. The Mo
